Hi, My mother aged 75 is a COPD patient. She is using Tioform 120 inhaler (2 puffs twice daily) for last couple of years as per Doctor's advice. She also uses Foracort 400 inhaler (2 puffs twice daily) along with Tioform 120 Inhaler. Usually she takes first Tioform and then Foracort. I want to know whether this is the right procedure or not. Presently she is suffering from rashes in her tongue for last couple of months. Food intake has been reduced exorbitantly as a result of these Serum Sodium as been reduced to 129 & Potassium is 3.6 now. She has become very weak and suffering from throat pain. Please advise me if there is any substitute of Tioform 120 inhaler to get her remedy.
